I just bought an used old macro lens for my camera. Here are some of my first shots with it.

Wow! The polyps don't even look wet in the first two images. Did you post process for color?

Also, what lens is that? The bokeh is great.

I did post process. I used a flash from the top to illuminate them but that really changed the color a lot. I had to post process them and play with white balance in order to get them to the way they looked to my eye.

The lens is a Tamron 90/2.5 Macro Adaptall SP. I think this shot was taken at F11 or so.
